About doglegs
Some holes are deliberately designed with no direct line-of-sight from the tee to the green.
A hole may bend either to the left or to the right and this bend is called a "dogleg", in reference to
the similarity to a dog's ankle.
There are three types of dogleg:
A "dogleg left" - the hole bends to the left as you look towards the green from the tee.
A "dogleg right" - the hole bends to the right as you look towards the green from the tee.
A "double dogleg" - there are two bends, for example in an "S" shape, as you look towards the
green from the tee.
